Is it really fair to consider The Roots a "hip hop outfit", anymore. I mean they've released so many different tracks in so many different styles.
BTW. I really like the song and look forward to the album.

When I think of Elvis Costello, Kurt Baker comes to mind. Kurt Bakers vocals and delivery has always reminded me of Elvis Costello. To bad Kurt Baker was better off fronting The Leftovers compared to going solo,sorry but solo Kurt Baker albums have been nothing special at all. Always liked The Leftovers because of Kurt bakers Costello style voice.
